The industry of brake friction blocks for elevators in China has gradually standardized alongside the rise of the elevator industry. In the 1980s and 1990s, with the emergence of high-rise urban buildings, elevators entered the stage of large-scale application. Brake friction blocks primarily used asbestos-based materials to meet the basic braking and leveling needs. Since the turn of the century, the surge in elevator installations and the strengthening of safety supervision for special equipment have driven the transformation of products towards non-asbestos environmentally friendly composite materials. Simultaneously, for different scenarios such as high-speed elevators and freight elevators, specialized models are being developed to handle high loads and frequent start/stop cycles, achieving dual enhancements in braking stability and service life. In recent years, the development of intelligent elevators and the acceleration of old elevator retrofitting projects have imposed new requirements on brake friction blocks, including low wear, low noise, and compatibility with intelligent braking systems. The iterative implementation of standards has further compelled the industry to focus on safety margins and compliance production. Currently, China has become the world's largest producer of brake friction blocks for elevators, with products covering all types of special equipment, including passenger elevators, freight elevators, and escalators.

We have established a specialized testing team for brake friction blocks for elevators, offering customized testing services for friction performance, physical properties, and more, based on elevator speed rating, load capacity, and usage scenarios (commercial buildings, hospitals, logistics warehouses), helping products build the core defense line for safe elevator operation.
